Concrete Pump
Item Name Code (INC) 22072
![]() |
A positive displacement machine designed to utilize the reciprocating motion of one or more pistons or plungers as a means of transferring concrete from one place to another through a pipeline. It normally includes a remixing hopper for blending one batch of concrete with the other, thereby minimizing the effect of any lack of uniformity in concrete as delivered to the pump. Excludes PUMP, RECIPROCATING.
Additional Information for Concrete Pump
A concrete pump is a type of equipment used in construction projects to transfer liquid concrete from a mixer to the desired location. It is commonly used in large-scale construction projects such as buildings, bridges, and highways.
Concrete pumps are designed to efficiently and accurately deliver concrete to the desired location, even in hard-to-reach areas. They consist of a pump, a hydraulic system, and a pipeline system. The pump is responsible for creating the pressure needed to push the concrete through the pipeline, while the hydraulic system controls the movement and operation of the pump.
There are two main types of concrete pumps: boom pumps and line pumps. Boom pumps are mounted on trucks or trailers and have a robotic arm, or boom, that can extend and reach high or distant areas. Line pumps, on the other hand, are smaller and more portable, making them suitable for smaller construction sites or areas with limited access.
Concrete pumps offer several advantages over traditional methods of concrete placement, such as wheelbarrows or cranes. They can deliver concrete quickly and efficiently, reducing labor costs and increasing productivity. They also provide a more precise and controlled placement of concrete, resulting in a higher quality finish.
In summary, concrete pumps are essential equipment in the construction industry, particularly for projects that require the efficient and accurate placement of concrete. They help save time, labor, and resources, making them a valuable asset in the construction, mining, excavating, and highway maintenance equipment supply group.
